2024 New Jersey Candidate Questionnaire

AAPI New Jersey (formerly AAPI Montclair) is the largest 501(c)3 non-partisan advocacy organization that advocates for the rights and representation of NJ's over 1 million Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders. As part of our nonpartisan civic engagement efforts, we reached out to all candidates for the 2024 U.S. Senate and House of Representatives primaries asking them to share their views on how they will serve their AAPI constituents.
